Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Longbenton
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should you replace it?

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good.

What affects the price in Longbenton
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price

Questions from Longbenton
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across North Tyneside.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you cover Longbenton?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Longbenton and the rest of North Tyneside. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Which areas do you work in?
All of North Tyneside, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
